The PC market is sliding down between January and March which make the shipments drop at least 11 %. The succesive of falling sales for the first three months of 2013 is the biggest constriction since the IDC begin to keep the records in 1994. Bob O'Donnell who is as an IDC program vice-president, clients and displays states that the Windows 8 launch is not only successful to offer a positive push to the PC market, but also it has slacken the market itself. In fact, there are many factors which cause the falling sales and purchases of PC market.
Many people consider that the death of the netbook at the end of 2012 has slowly reduced the PC sales. The new inventions of modern technology, such as tablets and smartphones which indirectly have made the customer tend to use them rather than the netbook. It is because tablets and smartphones are simple to bring anywhere. Furthermore, they have some excellent features which are better than the netbook or another devices. Unfortunately, the biggest VC vendors, such as HP and Dell also get the bad impacts of the falling PC sales. They also feel pressured because they do not have any innovative strategies as well as the tablets or the smartphones market. As a result, they are demanded to take the business private which are expected can retool them to face the new challenge.
Basically, consumers are the main role which indirectly decrease the PC purchases. They are likely to change their perception toward PC and tend to shift to another costly and cumbersome devices such as tablets and smartphones which have successfully marketed the devices in the world thoroughly. Fortunately, the PC industry today tries to struggle and observe some new innovations which are expected can differentiate from another products and can inspire the customers or consumers to buy the PC.
